The hologram works, but I personally don't like the compromises. Stereophony should be more than a one-listener fixed-position experience. Also, the fidelity of the hologram leaves a bit to be desired. I know I've said good things about Carver in the past but this is one gadget he can keep. As far as the electrostats go, I generally prefer their sound to that of dynamic drivers. If I were you, I'd get the electrostats, sell the hologram, and buy a better preamp with the money. Please note that these are my opinions and not that of my employer. Yours for higher fidelity, Phil Rastocny AT&T-ISL ..!drufl!pmr

When I bought my carver preamp, I was told that the hologram will not
work on omnidirectional speakers or electro-statics. I'm wondering if
anyone has ever tried such an arrangement. I currently have a set of
DCM timewindows which are somewhat omnidirectional and the hologram
works great. I did however, get a better hologram effect with a set
of M&K's. I ask this because I'm considering a purchase of a pair of
electro-statics. Any comments would be appreciated.
